This makes no sense. You talk of =E2=80=9CArrays=E2=80=9D but in your code "=
MyArray1" is a string, NOT an array.=20

>     If Value=3D1
>         Result=3D#Name1(0)
>     End If

And this is complete nonsense. Where does =E2=80=9Cvalue=E2=80=9D come from?=
 What does it refer to? An array? An element in an array=E2=80=9D?

What is =E2=80=9CResult=E2=80=9D supposed to be? A string you try to get? An=
 array you try to get? The name of the array (in which case why do you refer=
 to an array element???)? Based on what criteria? The =E2=80=9Cvalue=E2=80=9D=
 of which we know nothing?

Please put a bit more effort into writing clear questions. Most of the time I=
 have the feeling you are smoking something not quite legal =E2=80=A6=20

=46rom what I THINK you mean I would probably use a dictionary with the arra=
y name as key and the arrays as value.


Dim myArray1() as String
Dim myArray2() as String
Dim myArray3() as String

Dim dictArray as dictionary=20

dictArray.Value( =E2=80=9CName1=E2=80=9D ) =3D myArray1
dictArray.Value( =E2=80=9CName2=E2=80=9D ) =3D myArray2
dictArray.Value( =E2=80=9CName3=E2=80=9D ) =3D myArray3


Dim Result() as String =3D dictArray.Value( =E2=80=9CName2=E2=80=9D )
// Result() is myArray2
